Women's Health - October 2007

Hey there - I think I might be coming down with a UTI - I know that if you can acidify or alkalize the system enough to prevent the bacteria from reproducing, it might be averted....

One Nurse I worked with swore by one, and another, the other....

I have both sitting here - which do you use yourself?

Since having a very regretable abortion 10 months ago...I went through a bought of really bad depression. And I never talked about any of the things I was feeling or thinking about during that time. Then suddenly, I started acting really irritable and angry about lots of little things.
I take a lot out on my boyfriend. But, I really don't mean to. I feel so guilty after I do. Because I love him. I find this frustrating , too because this is not me at all.
We've been away from each other (not broken up - only away from each other) for a month now.When he talk to me on the phone he tells me how much he still loves me, that he's still 'in love' w/ me, misses me, about things in our future,etc...
He knows why I act out in relation to the bad feelings abortion- but it's hard to deal w/.
My question is. He's stuck with me this long through it. He maintains that he's still in love with me. Even though I fight so much; do you think chances are he'll stick through it and stay with me???

I've just shaved for the first time and found that I really like the feeling. Now only problem is I have this little 'tuft' just at the very top and it's very hard to trim - any suggestions?

I used a shaving cream and moisturiser after and it feels great cept for this little tuft.

My last period was over on August 7. I have been off the pill since the end of July, therefore I had my last period AFTER getting off the pill, so I figured my cycle would just go back to normal. Why haven't I had a period since August? Its almost been 2 months without any kind of discharge. Is this healthy? I have an appointment with my gyno on Monday, but has anyone else experienced this? I don't want all that junk to "back up" if that is possible..

If missing an active pill raises the chance that you will get pregnant, why are you still protected for a whole week later.

My boyfirend and i had somewhat un protected sex last night. I have a nuva ring, however I am supposed to take it out now, tonight actually. He pulled out quickly when we realized we should use a condom, and claims it was only precum, but it may have been more. Should I be worried?

OKAY its like this.I bleed when I pee but its VERY light pink like u can bearly see it and it just happed today and it keeps going off and on, I been tired and taking naps alot, I have to pee all the time and feel like something is sitting on my bladder because after i pee i feel like something else is suppose to come out. My period aint due till next week, i do have unprotetced sex but its with someone i trust who dont have anything cus he says he gets checked on alot. I asked my mom if it could be a UTI but she said if that was the case I would be in pain. It dont hurt when i have to pee. I aint take a **** in 3 days and sometimes i feel like i have to but nothing still comes out. I took a test last week and it said I wasnt pregnant but someone also said it could be too soon to tell so yea i just need help and have no clue what to do.

Were you happy with the results? I'm thinking of having a reduction as I'm a medium build, average weighted woman with a massive 36FF bussom. I really want to go down to a much smaller size, maybe a B or a C. I've done some research on the web but just want to hear from real women. A friend told me it isn't recommended you go down more than one size which to me, would be a waste of money. I really want just smallish boobs - no more than a handful so they won't get in the way anymore and finally I can wear what I want. I know there is a large amount of money at stake, but at the moment I spend AT LEAST £250 a year replacing bra's and struggle to find clothes to fit as I'm way out of proportion. The large breasts are down to a hormone imbalance, even at my skinniest they are just too big. All advice, stories welcomed. Thanks.

I've been having thick white/yellowish discharge with a very strong oder.

I dont have sex, so I don't know what it could be.

I dont want to tell my mom or go to the family doctor, where should I go to get it checked out?

I'm 19 and ususally about 137 lbs, for the past two weeks i havent had much of an appetite and ive been tired and i've lost about 10 lbs. (this wouldn't be too much, but i don't weigh a whole lot to begin with) what could be causing this? I usually eat a normal amount of food and i'm not starving myself so i can rule any anorexia options out.
My aunt, who is a nutritionist, said to have the doctor check my blood sugar and thyroid.

It is not painful and only happens when i slighty squeeze my nipple. i am not squeezing hard at all. it doesnt smell either

I have been off my pill for about 2 months. I got a period on 31st August and i guess i am due for another but havent got it.

I was wondering if any of you thought i could be pregnant? Does nipple discharge have anything to do with that?

I also have a very sore lower back.....

But these are the only symptoms i have, i feel fine otherwise. Should i take a test now?

Hello,

I have been hearing about evening primrose oil and I am interested in taking it. What does evening primrose oil do for a woman? Can a woman who takes birth control pills also take evening primrose oil or will the two interact? What have been your experiences with evening primrose oil? Is there anything else I should know? Tell it all. Thanks in advance for your help.
